Talking to a Pakistani TV channel, the 2009 T20 World Cup winning star advised Virat to retire with his head held high. He said, 'Virat had to struggle a lot before getting fame at the beginning of his career. He is a champion. But I believe there comes a time in everyone's career when they have to move on to retirement. Then the goal should be to leave with your head held high.'

Although he has a record of returning to cricket after five retirements in his cricket career, Afridi hopes that former India captain Kohli will retire at the right time to maintain his personality.

He said, 'It should not go to such a stage, when you are left out of the team. Rather, you should leave from the top. However, this is rarely the case. Very few players, especially Asians, can get this decision right. But I think, when Kohli retires, he will take it well. He will leave with the same personality that he started his career with.
